Development as Freedom

Meredith's review
Aug 19, 2007
Read in January, 2003
All of Sen's work is meaningful, but this might be his most important. Sen is a novel economist in that he acknowledges the limitations of classic economics in relating to globalization, human rights, and poverty. Many economists have trouble seeing the forrest for the trees, but Sen knows the classic figures reported to the U.N. tell a partial story and leave out the humanity of the people actually experiencing what it means to have a high maternal mortality rate. Sen's idea of success might not necessarily be reflected in traditional terms. He would not view a development project as a success solely by profit margins or capital gains. It is rare to meet an economist who puts people before numbers and who functions so clearly as an activist. I saw Sen speak at Colombia U, and he is more inspiring in person than on the page. I think everyone would benefit from reading "Development as Freedom".

AbstractThe altitude region 40-70 km (signature trough region) is a segment of missile trajectories in which MDA signature simulation capability is least reliable. Important phenomena include afterburning cessation, turbulent-laminar transition, reduced mixing and onset of collision enhancement. Aero Optics, Inc. (AOI) and Calspan-University at Buffalo Research Center (CUBRC) propose the Trough Region Plume Signatures (TRPS) measurements-simulation program to collect and exploit highly resolved missile plume flow and radiation measurements in this altitude region. The unique capability of CUBRC's Large Energy National Shock Tunnel (LENS) is proposed for the measurements. LENS provides the altitude-velocity environment that matches missile trajectories along with demonstrated capability to measure gas dynamic and radiative properties of rocket plumes in shock tunnel test environments. Proposed measurements include mean and fluctuating flow and radiance properties, and particulate trajectories for liquid and solid propellants. Computations of the test flow field and radiation will be made with standard and newly developed flow/radiation simulation tools. The overall objective is a collection of gas dynamic and radiative measurements under well-defined conditions that support improved modeling and simulation. Phase I is test planning involving shock tunnel conditions, instrumentation, rocket motor design, demonstration of facilities and measurements, and supporting simulations. Phase II is implementation of the plan, data collection and archiving, analysis and exploitation of the data for improved simulations.

Project 1: Diet and vitamin status, allostatic load, and CVD risk in Puerto Rican adults
PD: Katherine L. Tucker, Ph.D. – University of Massachusetts Lowell
This longitudinal cohort study will extend follow-up of our existing cohort of 1500 Puerto Rican adults, aged 45-75 years at baseline, in the Boston area. We will investigate 5-year prospective associations between measures of cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors and evidence, in relation to baseline and continuing measures of dietary pattern, vitamin intake and plasma status; assess interrelationships over 5 years of allostatic load, CVD risk and evidence, with consideration of potential modifying effects of dietary pattern and vitamin status; Additionally we will assess associations between neighborhood measures of food availability, and walkability, in relation to dietary pattern, vitamin status, allostatic load, CVD risk factors and evidence.
Project 2: Social and environmental context of cardiovascular risk in Puerto Rican adults
PD: Luis M. Falcon, Ph.D. – University of Massachusetts Lowell
This project is an extension of our sociological investigation of psychosocial stressors and their measurement through 5 years. We will examine these stressors in the context of multilevel analysis, by adding measures of the neighborhood environment. We will assess 5-year prospective interrelationships between depressive symptomatology and psychosocial stress, progression of CVD risk and evidence over 5 years, with consideration of the modifying effects of social networks and social support. We will also assess neighborhood measures of stress (crime, building condition, green space, density, etc) in relation to perceived stress, depressive symptomatology, allostatic load, and measures of CVD risk and evidence.
Project 3: GWAS for cardiovascular health in elderly Puerto Ricans
PD: Jose Ordovas, Ph.D. – Tufts University
This project will build on our previous genetic analysis to genotype 1500 Puerto Rican adults currently participating in the Boston Puerto Rican Health Study. We will utilize the genome-wide association study (GWAS) data to target genetic regions for further analysis in relation to CVD risk measures over 5 years, and to 5 year measures of CVD evidence and type 2 diabetes. We will replicate findings observed in this population for CVD risk and type 2 diabetes in the Genetics of Lipid Lowering Drugs and Diet Network (GOLDN) and Nutrition, Aging, and Memory in Elders (NAME) studies, and complete detailed statistical analyses of specified genes with CVD risk factors, and type 2 diabetes, in interaction with environmental variables, including dietary intake, body weight, physical activity, acculturation and psychosocial stress.
Project 4: A CBPR investigation of traffic pollution and CVD in Puerto Rican adults
PD: Douglas Brugge, Ph.D. – Tufts University
This project will conduct environmental monitoring using our mobile air monitoring laboratory at the homes of participants to characterize the ultrafine particulate profile (UFP), test associations between measured levels and roadway proximity and traffic density; and test associations of UFP with inflammatory markers, blood pressure, and CVD risk factors. We will further develop evidence for a causal association between ultrafine particles and adverse outcomes by installing in-home HEPA filters and comparing biomarker concentrations in a double blind, randomized trial. Finally, we will develop and implement a program to educate community members about the risks of exposure to UFP and disseminate information that can be used to reduce exposure.
Project 5: A heart healthy action program for Puerto Rican adults
PD: Sabrina Noel, Ph.D. – University of Massachusetts Lowell
This intervention project will develop and implement a Heart Healthy Initiative for Puerto Rican Adults (HIP) in Boston, MA, evaluate the efficacy of the program over two years, and establish a computer-participant working alliance that uses a health behavior automated dialogue (via an embodied conversational agent, ECA) to promote and re-enforce positive heart health behaviors over one year. We will use participatory community-based research via focus groups (community members) and key informant interviews (stakeholders) to inform the development of this program, taking into account individual, social, cultural, and environmental factors that influence health behaviors (diet, physical activity, stress/anxiety, and social isolation) in this population. We will use ethnographic and qualitative techniques to examine the influence of multi-level settings on heart health behaviors and practices and assess baseline and longitudinal associations between the treatment (HIP) vs. comparison group and study outcome variables.

CNN has no plans to move its headquarters to New York. As a member of the CNN leadership team, I assure you there has been no discussion of doing any such thing. The new AOL Time Warner headquarters in New York will be home to the CNN New York bureau and the CNNfn network. Some CNN programs probably will originate from there. But the CNN News Group, which includes nearly 4,000 employees and 34 services, will continue to call Atlanta home for the foreseeable future. -- Eason Jordan, Chief News Executive, CNN
Blame Bush instead
I knew from reading his previous columns that Richard Shumate is an avid supporter of George W. Bush and the GOP. He is certainly entitled to his political views. However, I was absolutely appalled by his remarks regarding the recent terrorist attacks on our nation (Rant, "That awful sucking sound," Sept. 26). By arguing that former President Bill Clinton should be held somewhat responsible for these horrific events, Mr. Shumate is using this national catastrophe as an opportunity to promote his partisanship. This simply is not the time for that.
Nevertheless, just for the sake of argument, let's assume that he is correct. Let's assume that Mr. Clinton did fail to take the proper steps that would have prevented these terrible incidents from occurring. Well, then you would have to question why the newly installed Bush administration did not enact the measures necessary to correct these leftover weaknesses in our national security. After all, Mr. Bush had been the president for almost eight months before the September attacks. He -- not Bill Clinton -- had the power during that time to thwart the terrorists. Instead of vacationing in Texas during the summer, perhaps Mr. Bush should have been addressing these gaps in our security.
But there will be plenty of time for partisan politics later. Right now, our focus should be on uniting this nation against the cowards who are responsible for killing thousands of our unarmed citizens. We need to comfort the injured and those who have lost loved ones. And we must support the recovery efforts and our armed forces.
-- D. William Durr, Lithonia
Finally, a smart Caucasion
Dear Mr. Sugg: You seem to be the only intelligent white guy to ever write for Creative Loafing, and one of the few white Americans who is not living in denial about this country's cruel and racist history or its destructive foreign policy. I applaud you for answering your critics in "Sugg's Smackdown" (Fish Wrapper, Oct. 3). Most of them are a bunch of "liberal" and "conservative" idiots who never seem to realize that America was built on the backs of people of color whose labor helped the country to become a world power, but all the while have been treated as third-class citizens. I'm glad you took the courage to show your readers a critical look at what America really is, a country founded on hatred but masked as a savior.
-- David Harrison, Atlanta
Eritrean response
Neil Skene: Thanks for the article (Soapbox, "E-mail from exile," Oct. 3). The government in Eritrea is very clear in its action. It is not going to allow democracy to flourish. The people in the government may kill and imprison the messengers of freedom of speech but they can't stop the message. It is already out and moving fast.
I want to say thank you to the private newspapers for giving Eritreans a venue to voice their concerns and opinions about their country and their government. I hope freedom-loving people in the world raise their voices higher and demand the release of all journalists and political prisoners in Eritrea without any precondition.
-- Berhane Adhanom, Randolph, Mass.
West Coast spin
Mr. Bostock: Thank you for your thoughtful "Letter From Spain" (Paradigms, Sept. 26). I live in the San Francisco Bay Area, but lived in Atlanta for over 20 years before moving here. For us, the day was just beginning. I was awakened at 7 a.m. by the radio promising "more on the World Trade Center bombing after traffic."
The TV stayed on for at least the next 16 hours. We were all afraid to turn it off, wondering what would happen next. And, for once, the news was actually being reported, not analyzed, intellectualized and spun. To say that an entire nation was stunned is putting it lightly.
Living in the Bay Area gives one a different perspective on the tragedy. Most of us out here are hoping that cooler heads than Bush's will prevail and we will take a more measured approach to the tragedy. Bombing poor people is not a particularly good response and one we hope will not come about. Terrorism is not something that can be ended as long as their are disenfranchised people on this earth. Until the global economy becomes truly global, including all in its rewards, terrorism will go on. As Colin Powell said, the aim of terrorism is to induce terror. I would add it another aim -- to call attention to a situation or a group of people.
America is forever changed by this tragedy. Let's hope that in the long run, it's a change for the better.
-- Karen Myers, San Ramon, Cal.
The truth about Israel
Your Sept. 26 issue was wonderful. In particular, I liked the article "Fighting words" by Ken Edelstein, detailing some of the longstanding reasons U.S. foreign policy is disliked in many places, and "Terror: It's the real thing" by John Sugg, outlining Coke's complicity with terroristic union-busting in Colombia, and the equally lethal practices of other U.S. companies abroad.
Just as Mr. Sugg said, it is not so much our "freedoms" that other people hate (as President Bush claimed) as our government's practice of denying those freedoms to people in other countries -- in the interests of U.S. corporations.
One addendum to the very good points Mr. Edelstein makes against going to war: our main reason for supporting Israel (to the tune of $25 billion tax dollars a year) is oil. We support Israel not because it is a bastion of democracy (it's not) but because it is the largest aircraft carrier we have in that oil-rich region.
Keep up the good work.

Oral contraceptive therapy was responsible for two episodes of severe hypertension in a young woman. On the second occasion she developed malignant arteriolar nephrosclerosis that progressed to end-stage renal failure before the contraceptive therapy was stopped. She is now well, requiring no antihypertensive medications, after maintenance hemodialysis, bilateral nephrectomy, and kidney transplantation. The implications of this rare but not unexpected complication from the casual use of hormonal contraceptives are discussed.

THE PREOPERATIVE diagnosis of a carotid body tumor may tax the acumen and ingenuity of the most experienced and careful surgeon. Symptoms and signs are rarely specific, and often misleading. An extensive review of the literature indicates a correct preoperative diagnosis in only 10% of the reported cases.
Recent reports1,2 stress the potential malignancy of carotid body tumors. Fanning, Woods and Christian2 list 25 malignant cases with proved metastases to the regional lymph nodes or to distant sites. This awareness of malignant changes along with advances in anesthesia and surgical technique, has directed fresh attention to the surgical management of these tumors. The indications for surgical removal of a carotid body tumor, and the selection of a specific surgical technique call for a thorough angiographic investigation.
The value of carotid angiography was first mentioned by Engström and Hamberger3 in 1957, for the diagnosis of a bilateral carotid

Canon imageCLASS LBP151dw
The Canon LBP151DW is a competent workhorse laser printer, but rival models offer more features and lower ink costs for the same price.
Brother HL-L2360DW
The HL-2360DW is a strong choice if you're shopping for a text-only printer that can print from the cloud and won't empty your wallet on toner refills.
Brother HL-3170CDW
Despite its photo printing shortcomings, the Brother HL-3170CDW is a capable color laser printer that meets all the major requirements for a small office workgroup.
Dell Wireless Laser Printer B1160w
The Dell B1160w's limited paper input capacity and lack of Ethernet networking constrain its use for small businesses with high-volume workloads, but its compact form makes it an affordable solution for personal use at home.
HP LaserJet Pro 400 M401dn
The $399 HP LaserJet Pro 400 M401dw bundles all of HP's latest technologies into a tight package, but the 3.5-inch touch-screen display doesn't offer enough unique features to warrant the price jump to $400, especially compared with competing devices. Small businesses and home offices shopping for a reliable monochrome laser printer for quick prints should ignore the HP LaserJet M401dw's inflated price tag and look for a better deal.
Dell 1130n
Although it performed adequately in our print speed tests, this basic monochrome laser printer is outgunned by competitive devices with wireless networking for the same price.
Visit manufacturer site for details.
Dell 1250c Color LED Laser-Class Printer
The Dell 1250c color laser printer's compact frame makes sense for users in a confined space, but its lack of Ethernet and wireless connectivity limits its appeal for networked offices.
HP LaserJet Pro P1606dn
Fast, cheap, and compact, the HP LaserJet Pro P1606dn offers a winning combination of value and performance for home offices or small businesses in need of a monochrome laser printer.
Brother HL-2270DW
With improvements to its output speed, the Brother HL-2270DW improves on its legacy model and provides small businesses an efficient output device for high-volume black-and-white prints.
Dell 1350cnw Color Laser Printer
If you print a high volume of monochrome and color documents, the Dell 1350cnw color laser printer delivers strong results with a variety of wired and wireless networking options. As long as you're patient with its sluggish output speed and small LED screen, we recommend the Dell 1350cnw for use in a small business or home office.

The new section is here. Could you possibly have a look at it? Thanks. James F. (talk) 04:28, 16 Jun 2004 (UTC)
what does "little factual basis for a sympathetic point of view" mean? Almost every view has somebody who can be documented as sympathetic. I'm curious, esp. since I was thinking of editing on the wiki-info as well as the pedia here. You seem to suggest that a key peice of their policy is unfairly represented? Sam [Spade] 20:51, 18 Jun 2004 (UTC)
- Wikinfo's policy on sympathetic point of view does not extend to totalitarian ideologies and related subjects. White nationalism due to its association in popular culture with Neonazism probably deserves some sort of special treatment as legitimate grievances are usually not taken seriously. Fred Bauder 12:54, Jun 19, 2004 (UTC)
- I'm not sure I understand the general point your making (particularly "legitimate grievances are usually not taken seriously"), but I do understand that Wikinfo's policy apparently does not extend to unpopular ideologies. On a separate note...
- White grievances, for example, with affirmative action, or immigration, which White nationialists raise are often not taken seriously due to the associations with racism which White nationalist represent. Fred Bauder 19:27, Jun 21, 2004 (UTC)
- I understand that, but in my eyes that would display an especially clear need for allowing a sympathetic point of view for them on wikinfo. I guess I am always for bringing up the lowest common denominator, but I don't see why they (or anyone) should be the exception to the rule. Sam [Spade] 02:55, 22 Jun 2004 (UTC)
Might I enquire as to why you have changed your vote? I understood and agreed with your previous stance, but I see that you have made a 180-degree turn and have chosen to accept without comment. I'm not aware of the particulars on this, but I assume you are in no way required to provide explanations for your votes or decisions one way or the other. That said, I would prefer to be enlightened as to your reasoning, and would perhaps enjoy an opportunity to attempt to sway you, assuming that was both acceptable and necessary. Sam [Spade] 18:02, 21 Jun 2004 (UTC)
- I agree with Mav that we need to take a look at the requirement that editors strive for NPOV in the context of the case of an editor who is allegedly not trying at all. Fred Bauder 23:18, Jun 21, 2004 (UTC)

My Arbitration Case[edit]
As the Wikipedia is currently experiencing technical difficulties which prohibit me from editing or defending myself, I expect you to relay this message to the rest of your committee.
The rules are quite clear that, prior to arbitration, a plaintiff must attempt to resolve the issue via the mediation committee -- as Snowspinner has not done this, I expect the committee to follow its own rules and insist that Snowspinner attempt to resolve his personal issues with me, by discussing with me in a mediated fashion.
I am happy to accept mediation and believe that mediation, on this issue, is long overdue. Lirath Q. Pynnor
I am disappointed that you have not responded to the above -- if you are on vacation, please inform the parties which you are judging. Regardless, I have begun a defense at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Lir/Evidence/Defense Lirath Q. Pynnor

I'm not sure why you left the note regarding the restoration of the arbcom request on 172's talk page when it was Sam Spade who made the changes. :) Snowspinner 14:39, Jul 27, 2004 (UTC)

Arbitration case[edit]
I strongly object to you listing my name alongside Lance6Wins at Wikipedia:Requests for Arbitration. I have not been accused of any offence and the case against Lance6Wins is not a dispute between him and me. I didn't even initialize the case against Lance6Wins. I am the poor sysop who has been trying to defend Wikipedia against assault by a fanatic. The case concerns Lance6Wins' behaviour over many months and not about particular articles nor about my recent blocks of his IPs. --Zero 08:52, 2 Aug 2004 (UTC)
"In legalese, he has filed a counterclaim." Since when do defendants have the right to file counterclaims against witnesses? Funny sort of law you practice, Fred. --Zero 00:13, 3 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Lyndon LaRouche[edit]

Lyndon LaRouche[edit]
Further to this matter, since I have been censured and penalised for personal attacks, I think it is now appropriate that I ask you to make an additional ruling that User:Herschelkrustofsky be required to refrain from calling named individuals "fascists," particularly those who are not Wikipedians and not present to defend themselves, unless there is evidence that they belong to a fascist organisation or have espoused views generally accepted as fascist. I refer to his repeated description of an Australian Member of Parliament, Michael Danby, as (to quote just the most recent example) "Australia's most outspokenly fascist Member of Parliament, Michael Danby." This is untrue and grossly offensive, and may also expose Wikipedia to action for defamation. I think fairness dictates that if I am to be censured for calling Herschelkrustofsky a slanderer, he should be required to cease being one. Adam 00:14, 9 Aug 2004 (UTC)
The most reference instance is at Talk:Lyndon LaRouche#For those of you just joining us. Adam 12:31, 9 Aug 2004 (UTC)
It's a perfectly true statement, and highly relevant to the debate within which it was made. However I am willing to refrain from futher such comments, provided Herschelkrustofsky is instructed to cease slandering people as fascists and this instruction is enforced. Adam 14:37, 9 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Re: "arbitration/Rex071404"[edit]
Please take note, yesterday, I posted my version of the facts on this issue as per the page's instructions: "If you disagree with some evidence you see here, please provide counter-evidence, or an explanation of why the evidence is misleading. Please do this under a seperate header, to seperate your response from the original evidence."
However, tonight, Neutrality has twice deleted my statement from that page and instead moved it to the "discussion" page.
I am trying my best to defuse the tense dynamic between Neutrality an myself, but I am at a loss as to what to do.
For example, Neutrality is again jumping all over my edits on John Kerry and deleted/reversed me me multiple times tonight wihtout discussion. I have left copious notes on that talk page explaining my edits, but Neutrality dos not dialog with me.
I really would appreciate some guidedance on getting Neutrality to give me some breathing room.
Also, please take note, although I am feeling very pressed againg by Neutrality, I am not reverting to my intial method of snide commentary.
Since Snowspinner chastized me sevral days ago with a 24hr ban, I have reconsidered and am avoiding harsh statements. That being the case, when can I expect Neutrality to be advised to leave me be and not be so agressive to me? Rex071404 01:49, 11 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Question about ArbCom procedure[edit]
I noticed your comment on User talk:Rex071404 about the arbitration concerning him. Therefore, of all the arbitrators, I've singled you out to be pestered with a question about procedure. Is there a point at which the "record" is closed so that the Committee can make a decision? After the initial request was made, I added a few items. Then, more recently, I added a very detailed account of one particular illustrative incident. Now, in the course of doing something not directly related to the arbitration proceeding, I came upon something else that I'd forgotten before but that adds a little morsel to the case. If I'd remembered it initially I would've included it, but it's no big deal. My concern is that if the complainants keep adding things, and Rex keeps adding responses or other defenses, we'll just have a version of the Talk:John Kerry debate carried over to a new page, and the ArbCom will never have a completed record on which to act. In requesting a preliminary injunction, I've mentioned why I think speed is important, so I wouldn't want to delay the proceeding by continuing to add things. Any advice you can give on the timing (complaints, responses, ArbCom action) would be appreciated. (I've never been involved in an arbitration before.) JamesMLane 02:46, 12 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- You copied my question to my Talk page and answered it there. I infer that you prefer to have all the discussion in one place instead of bouncing back and forth between Talk pages (I agree, I really dislike that feature of so many Wikipedia conversations), and that you prefer the one place to be my Talk page instead of yours (fine with me). Accordingly, I've replied there. Thanks for your response. JamesMLane 14:16, 12 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Lyndon LaRouche[edit]
When can I expect a formal response to my request above re Herschelkrustofsky? This is a matter I take very seriously. Adam 07:28, 12 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- See Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Lyndon LaRouche/Proposed decision, Section Proposed findings of fact, where the following proposed finding, "6) User Herschelkrustofsky has engaged in personal attacks directed at User:Adam Carr though association with Adam Carr's employer, Michael Danby who he characterizes as "Australia's most outspokenly fascist Member of Parliament" see[2]" has been added and is being voted on.
- Also in the section Proposed remedies, "7) User Herschelkrustofsky is banned for one day for making personal attacks." and in the subsection Enforcement, "4) In the event of additional personal attacks by either party, either User Herschelkrustofsky or User Adam Carr are subject to short bans, the duration of the ban to gradually increase upon subsequent offenses." Fred Bauder 12:56, Aug 12, 2004 (UTC)
Dear Arbitration Committee:
I have read the following:
- === Remedies===
1) Original work which originates from Lyndon LaRouche and his movement may be removed from any Wikipedia article in which it appears other than the article Lyndon LaRouche and other closely related articles.
- Passed with 5 of 6 active arbitrators on 2 August 2004. No votes against and no abstentions
3) User:Adam Carr is banned for one day for making a personal attack.
- Passed with 5 of 6 active arbitrators on 2 August 2004. No votes against and no abstentions
4) Supporters of Lyndon LaRouche are instructed not to add references to Lyndon directly to articles except where they are highly relevant, and not to engage in activities that might be perceived as "promotion" of Lyndon LaRouche.
- Passed with 5 of 6 active arbitrators on 2 August 2004. No votes against and no abstentions
1) Wikipedia users who engage in re-insertion of original research which originated with Lyndon LaRouche and his movement or engage in edit wars regarding insertion of such material shall be subject to ban upon demonstration to the Arbitration Committee of the offense.
- Passed with 5 of 6 active arbitrators on 2 August 2004. No votes against and no abstentions
3) If an article is protected due to edit wars over the removal of Lyndon-related material, Admins are empowered (as an exception to normal protection policy) to protect the version which does not mention Lyndon LaRouche.
- Passed with 5 of 6 active arbitrators on 2 August 2004. No votes against and no abstentions
I have attempted twice to restore this passage to the article:
- Former U.S. Attorney General Ramsey Clark has tried to clear LaRouche's name, arguing that investigators and political opponents had abused the legal process to eliminate him. Clark wrote in 1995, in a letter to then serving Attorney General Janet Reno: "I bring this matter to you directly, because I believe it involves a broader range of deliberate and systematic misconduct and abuse of power over a longer period of time in an effort to destroy a political movement and leader, than any other federal prosecution in my time or to my knowledge."[http:// larouchein2004.net/ exoneration/ clarkletter.htm]
- In the early 1990s, while LaRouche was in prison, full page advertisements, calling for LaRouche to be exonerated, appeared in papers such as the New York Times and Washington Post. Among the signators were heads of state and cabinet-level officials from around the world, including Arturo Frondizi, former President of Argentina; leaders of the American Civil Rights Movement, including Amelia Boynton Robinson (the heroine of Bloody Sunday) and Rosa Parks; former Minnesota Senator and Democratic Presidential Candidate Eugene McCarthy; and prominent artists, such as violinist Norbert Brainin, former primarius of the Amadeus Quartet.
- It is interesting, and perhaps puzzling, that these individuals came to the defense of a man who has been so universally condemned in the press throughout the English-speaking world.
It had been reverted by administrator Guanaco. When I replaced it he reverted it again, with the explanation that it was forbidden by the AC ruling. I put it back in, saying that I had read the AC ruling. Then it was reverted by administrator AndyL. Could you please explain how the ruling forbids this? The section is certainly factual and I think it makes the article more neutral. Weed Harper 14:14, 13 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- You are correct. There is no restriction on editing of the article Lyndon LaRouche. The only proposition, which was rejected, would have restricted editing by Herschelkrustofsky. I will leave a note on User Talk:Guanaco. Fred Bauder 14:39, Aug 13, 2004 (UTC)
I would like to call your attention to the following, which indicates that Adam Carr has resumed his campaign of personal attacks, in defiance of the Arbitration Committee rulings:
- "I have no objection to Snowspinner or some other User not previously involved attempting to write a compromise or composite article incorporating elements of the pro-LaRouche and anti-LaRouche articles. I am not optimistic of their chances of success (it will be like trying to write an article on evolution by merging a Darwinian article and a creationist article), but I am willing to wait and see what they come up with. I am emphatically not willing that Herschelkrustofsky should be the person to undertake this task, since he is not only a LaRouche cult member and thus a partisan in this controversy, but also a proved and notorious liar and slanderer. Anything he writes will be just another attempt to wheedle his lying LaRouche garbage into Wikipedia and will be immediately reverted. Adam 11:51, 16 Sep 2004 (UTC)" (from Talk:Political_views_of_Lyndon_LaRouche#The_Basic_Version
--Herschelkrustofsky 15:08, 16 Sep 2004 (UTC)
Please re-consider Re: Requests_for_arbitration/Rex071404[edit]
On the advice of Mbecker, I am voluntarily abstaining from any John Kerry edits for several days. Also, I have added substaintial information to my section of the evidence page, please review that. [3] Also, please take note that my principal accuser Neutrality has also been involved in aggressive revert activities at George_W._Bush and yet, though I have also begun to edit George_W._Bush, I have not been involved in acrimonious debates on that talk page nor any reverts there at all. There is no tactful way to say this, but if you look at the state the John Kerry page was before I arrived, I think you'd agree that this entrenched group of editors who is after me (principally JamesMLane and Neutrality) had a very heavy pro-Kerry bias on that page. I truly do want to avoid being kicked out and to that end, have several times asked my principal accuser Neutrality to dialog with me on my talk page and I also requested mediation with him. He declined both. Rex071404 07:34, 14 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- If you feel User Neutrality's behavior should be considered please add your request to the page Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Rex071404 requesting whatever relief you feel is justified. Be sure to put some examples of specific edits on the Evidence page also. Fred Bauder 12:21, Aug 14, 2004 (UTC)
Has Herschelkrustofsky been formally advised that he must desist from calling Michael Danby a fascist? What was his response? Adam 12:31, 15 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- Right now 3 arbitrators have voted for a remedy which would ban him for one day. I don't know if he understands at this point that he must desist from calling Michael Danby a fascist? As we have no decree on the point I haven't tried to tell him. Fred Bauder 12:40, Aug 15, 2004 (UTC)
I am not interested in having him banned. I am interested in having him told that he must not call people fascists. Adam 14:14, 15 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- At this point I have just made a request on his talk page. Fred Bauder 15:40, Aug 15, 2004 (UTC)
Re: Rex071404 John Kerry ban[edit]
Given the extreme pro-Kerry condition of the John Kerry page when I began editing it and the furious reaction of the entrenched editors there, I am not surpised that Arbitrators would leap to their defense. I am however, surprised that you you do it so easily based on what amounts to their half of the story of a tit-for-tat battle.
With election 2004 underway, the ponderously slow process of the Arb committee means that my "temp" ban is in fact a death sentence.
For your information, I was patiently and thoroughly tallying details (many already submitted into evidence) about Neutrality, etc's equally agressive efforts as mine.
But alas, this Wiki has turned into bascially a pro-Kerry farce - with only the aggresive "anti-Kerry" editors being banned. The pro-Kerry crew it seems, can do no wrong.

Thanks for notifying me of the RfAr. I had actually noticed it but was just going to ignore it until I heard from an arbitrator that it was being considered. VV 22:40, 21 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Hello, Fred.[edit]
On VeryVerily's talk page, you mentioned me as being "involved in the dispute." Actually, I'm not a party to this; that matter is solely between Kevin baas and VV. Thanks. :) [[User:Neutrality|Neutrality (talk)]] 03:50, 22 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Your insistence that snowspinner's comment remain on the arbitration page is in direct contradiction to your stated opinion on the matter, on [4].
Please either change your proposition, or practice it.
And BTW, I noticed the comment above by neutrality, which is mistaken. Gzornenplatz initiated the arbitration. I simply put on a supporting opinion. By that fact, I am involved in the matter, but i am not the sole party nor the dominant party in RfAr. And there are many parties involved in the dispute (though not neccessarily involved in RfAr), as listed on the RfC, and evidenced by the links to evidence and dialogue on the RfAr and RfC. Kevin Baas | talk 20:10, 2004 Aug 23 (UTC)
- Perhaps the stated policy needs to be rephrased. Any person may join in the complaint or counter-complaint in any request for arbitration. That way we can do the whole thing at once. Fred Bauder 20:32, Aug 23, 2004 (UTC)
- Fine, but until the stated policy is rephrased and agreed upon (ratified), the current, instated policy must be followed without exception. Kevin Baas | talk 20:42, 2004 Aug 23 (UTC)

The Matter of Michael[edit]
I don't care about the matter of Michael. What I DO care about is getting Guanaco to stop unilateral unblocking. RickK 22:09, Aug 28, 2004 (UTC)
IRC Banning[edit]
Fred, I've been banned from the #wikipedia IRC channel by Snowspinner, for what he considers "personal attacks" against him.
I don't feel I did make any personal attack, nor am I aware that banning from IRC for "personal attacks" is supported by policy (but with so many policies, perhaps it is and I've missed it). And in any case, I think it contravenes policy for Snowspinner to take action in a dispute to which he is a party to.
In what way do I contest the banning, and Snowspinner's banning for a dispute he is party to?
A log of the conversation leading up to the ban is given at User:Orthogonal/IRC ban by Snowspinner.
Thanks. -- orthogonal 04:59, 29 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- Ugh. Sorry you're getting dragged into this. The short form is that orthogonal has been harassing me in IRC for about a month. Today, in the name of "parody" he changed his nick to Sn0wsinner and proceeded to make a few comments at my expense. Though this was in the context of parody, with other users imitating Jimbo and Larry, between the nick and the fact that orthogonal's feelings towards me have been made clear in the past, I was not amused. I told orthogonal to stop when I got back to the channel and found that. He decided to push the issue and troll me. I banned him.
- That said, IRC's not your department, so I doubt you're worying about it that much. Fennec has indicated that he backs me on it, noting that he wanted to ban him himself. But I figured I'd at least explain, since this got dumped on your talk page. Snowspinner 06:14, Aug 29, 2004 (UTC)
Arb case[edit]
I have added an additional charge against Wolfman this evening: Violation of the "3-revert rule". See evidence here. Rex071404 04:07, 30 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Hi, you recently reverted my reversion of the same POV text added to two articles about Tibet. Are you sure that's what you meant to do? Markalexander100 07:22, 3 Sep 2004 (UTC)
- Although Anon's edits might be edited a bit, they seem simply the Chinese point of view which should be included. Some language needs to be added so that important events like establishing a Chinese presence in Lhasa can be seen from Tibetan, Chinese and international points of veiw. Fred Bauder 10:23, Sep 3, 2004 (UTC)
The revised History of Tibet section is fine; I've edited out the duplication in the Tibet article, re-added Anon's deletion, and deleted Anon's misstatement of fact. Markalexander100 10:37, 3 Sep 2004 (UTC)
Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/RickK vs. Guanaco[edit]
I request that you recuse yourself from this case, it is clear from your actions that you are prejudiced against me. RickK 04:49, Sep 5, 2004 (UTC)
- There is no basis for recusal. The only interaction we have ever had resulted from you removing material which others have placed in your arbitration case. Twice you have removed it, twice I have restored it. Just quit editing what others feel is relevant evidence. Fred Bauder 11:54, Sep 5, 2004 (UTC)

Product Description
From School Library Journal
Grade 5-7-Each text provides background on the history, geography, rulers, people, life, arts, culture, and eventual fate of each civilization. However, the chapter titles do not always provide enough clues as to the complete scope of the section. The subheadings that divide the material into short, manageable segments are more helpful. Readers may need to skim each chapter spread, noting the subheading, to locate needed information. The pages are full of colorful photographs, illustrations, time lines, artwork, and diagrams complete with well-written captions. The texts offer more information than textbooks, but still do not delve deeply enough into each civilization to provide information for more than a simple report. However, the visual artifacts from each civilization are sure to interest students. None of the books includes a bibliography. The same information can be found in Ancient Egypt, Ancient China, and Aztec, Inca, and Maya (all DK, 2000) in the "Eyewitness" series.-Anne L. Tormohlen, Deerfield Elementary School, Lawrence, KS

Old timey folk is making a big comeback in the wake of Carolina Chocolate Drops' success. Mornin' Old Sport began life in Boston, but have recently relocated to the Bay Area where there is a thriving old time music scene of jug bands and folk players. Like so many of these artists, Mornin' Old Sport's tunes incorporate early 20th century vaudeville sounds into the mix, as well as bits of traditional jazz and early country string band elements. It's a thrilling mix that is practically the version definition of Americana music as it draws from so many strands of American roots music across ethnic and racial lines. Today we have the pleasure of premiering "I Don't Care If the Sun Don't Shine", a tune penned by Mack David, recorded by Patti Page in 1950, and also among Elvis Presley's first recordings. On 10 July, the band will release their latest album, Misery Loves Co.. Scott Nanos says of the new record, "[it] is even more old-timey than the EP — basically we just keep getting more old-timey as we keep going on,' he said. 'Whereas the EP sounds pretty Thirties Jazz Age, this one also has an old Western swing and bluegrass tinge to it.'" Check out the tune and tour dates below.

Drone Lunch…
At work, we have an informal group that is interested in drones and quadcopters. Every third Thursday, we get together and fly. Today we went over to Cesar Chavez Park for a bit of flying. I was hoping that I'd have more of my own quadcopter completed, but instead I just observed Mark fly his Bixler and his One Piece Quad, while John flew his Phantom 2 around. They should have some footage up in the next few days. To tide you all over, here is some footage that Jeremy shot on two previous drone lunches, one filmed at work, and the other at the top of Mount Diablo. Enjoy.

When Nicki Minaj deactivated her Twitter account 9 days ago, her 11 million followers demanded her return. After having one too many Twitter tiffs with her fans, she decided it was too much for her to take.
Yesterday she finally returned, but can no longer say she has one of the most popular Twitter accounts in the world. She didn't make her first tweet until this afternoon, but sent out hugs and kisses to her remaining Barbz.
*salutes the nation of Pinkslam* *hugs the barbz* *kisses the barbz*
— Nicki Minaj (@NICKIMINAJ) April 25, 2012
Perez Hilton shared his excitement about Nicki's return this morning with B96/Chicago. Perez remarked, "Nicki Minaj has returned to Twitter. She has, as of last night when I went to bed, not tweeted back yet, but she's on there again. She only has a fraction of her followers that she used to have. Last time I checked she had a million, and before she decided to quit she had 11 million. But, she's back, and it's nice to see her on there again."
According to MTV, she had around 125,000 followers when she reactivated her account last night. At this point, she's already back up to 2,848,000.

Hey kids, just read on governing.com that of all 50 states SC is 4th in per-capita bicyclist deaths over the last three years. So here's our chance for Charleston to make us #1 in another category!
Get ready for the comments to be closed for no good reason at all.
Unfortunately, in this case, I believe that somebody will die. That bridge isn't very safe in morning rush-hour traffic in a car, much less a bike.
They didn't due a study on the traffic onto the Connector during this trial period. It was backed up all the way to Harbor View Rd every weekday, because drivers on Folly Road avoided the traffic going towards the Ashley Bridge. There are 300 new apartments right where they want to make it one lane. REALLY?
LOL assigning party politics to our local government.
In the lowcountry there are developers, and everyone else--and our local governing bodies are inundated with developers that care not for anyone else's opinion.
Your beautiful daughter was in some dance classes with my girl. I remember briefly meeting you and, I must say, you had the most fantastic bumper stickers that absolutely cracked me up and made me thankful for kickass feminists. Your bond with your little girl was so touching to witness and your words have me thunderstruck today. I don't claim to know you other than in passing, but I wish you a most peaceful journey in the coming weeks. And know that even in a brief encounter of meeting you and reading your story here, you've changed my life for the better.
A slippery-slope argument! How novel!
Alison, Thanks for your brave writing during this horrible time in your life. When my mom was at your stage, I wish I had videoed every conversation so I can see her and hear her voice again. I wish I had her thoughts and statements kooky from the cancer preserved, because some of the misstatements were damn funny. You are a smart, thoughtful person, and we are honored to have experienced your thoughts.
Colleen Condon
I love how you did your usual bullshit where you put everyone that you disagree with into a convenient classification which you define (in this case under the classy term "2A dickheads") and then complained when the exact same thing was done to you. Nice! It's not easy to get that all done so succinctly.
So, search my history then and find where I've advocated modification or abolition of any civil rights.
I am not, however, going to search your history. I recognize that people have different opinions and can't be put into neat boxes to make my internet debating career easier.
If you have always advocated for the repeal of the 2nd Amendment then I commend you, you are ahead of the leftist curve. You will, eventually, be on here advocating for the severe restriction or repeal of other civil liberties, I predict.
I am not offended, that's for weaklings.
I am just pointing out that outlandish opinions tied to a question will result in that question not being taken seriously.
"With multitudes of extremely dangerous animals like raccoons, snakes and alligators all around us - how can we best coexist with wildlife in the Lowcountry?"
To seriously answer the question at the end of that sentence at least implies that I accept the ridiculous statement in the first half.
I hope this helps you pose questions in the future.
Oh, Alison. I don't believe we have ever met, but I know of you in this awesome small town we both call home- we have friends in common, and because of that- and because of these beautiful words you have written over the years- I feel I know you. I am sitting here with tears streaming down my face. I am sad and yet my heart tells me energy is never created or destroyed- so from the beyond- whatever that looks like on the other side- please keep sending us these beautiful messages about life. And what is important. And I am certain Maybelle will be embraced by this community as you are now... and that you will continue to influence her life too. You have an amazing gift in your ability to describe the life experience in words. You have changed my day and my perspective. I was dreading something similar to a princess party- that I am now going to celebrate and cherish every moment of. I wish you peace friend... breath deep and know you are loved.
Yes, Waring said, if I recall correctly, "Sometimes bikers just have to die." It was stated after he discussed car accidents happening before necessary measures being taken to address dangerous roads/intersections. I think he was saying it may take a terrible bike tragedy to get the community to fully support a bike lane. That said, we had already discussed the death of the doctor who was killed while trying to cross the Ashley on the James Island connector, so his point made no sense.
It was a ridiculous argument he was making while trying to rationalize his vote against the bike lane.
Thank you, Alison, for your grace and perspective through these difficult times.
sorry you feel defensive cid. but i'm really asking questions. what are we asking others to emulate? how will charleston "lead by example--once again"?
I guess you could say the cyclists have really....peddled this issue. (⌐■_■)
Browse my history and tell me where I've ever said I support the second amendment.
(hint: I didn't)
Do I think guns should be entirely outlawed? Not necessarily. Single and double shot long guns are probably fine for sportsmen. But preserving unlimited, unregulated private gun ownership? Public. Safety. Nuisance.
What kills me about you 2A dickheads is that you constantly harp on the sanctity of the Bill of Rights while simultaneously supporting the modification or abolition of other amendments (namely 1, 4, 6, 8, 15, 16) that do not protect your little toys.
Amendments are malleable and should be repealed and adjusted to suit modern times. You will not lead a successful insurrection with your arms in the 21st century. Period. Give it up.
I do support stringent regulation of high capacity weapons, high rate-of-fire weapons, and highly concealable weapons. Namely anything semiautomatic, and all handguns.
Will this end gun violence completely? No. But it can mitigate the damage done in the blink of an eye.
In the meantime, I just hope that you defy statistics and avoid killing yourself or your family members with your home defense weapons.
Can anyone confirm or give context for this alleged Keith Waring quote: "Sometimes bikers have to die"?
" A few institutions with deep historical ties to the white supremacy (Coastal Community Foundation, Boeing, MUSC)..."
This is the sort of nonsense that makes further statements from you ineligible for serious consideration.
Thank YOU Alison. You've reached so many people & influenced so many lives, mine being one. I admire your courage for women's rights, education, raising Maybelle and so so much more. We've laughed & cried with you during your health struggles and columns and now I just cry..with a smile. Knowing you lived life to the fullest & built a great life for Maybelle, too. Rest & be with your family and friends these last days. We shall celebrate you now and later! xoxo
Pronghorn is right to ask about the off-duty but in-uniform cop that was on duty at the Orlando club. He certainly had his duty pistol with him. The reporting never explains exactly what happened with him except he was outside and the terrorist was inside.
Lee - I am glad to see the left is finally dropping all the disingenuous "we support the 2nd Amendment, but..." nonsense. That's intellectually honest, finally. Better late than never. I am sure that, in time, the 1st and 4th Amendments and other civil liberties will be added to the list of rights which are also just too dangerous for Americans citizens to have. Onward, comrade!

We were passing through York on Prince Street, and just happened to see the sign. It looked like a place Guy Fieri would check out, so we stopped. The guy taking our order seemed like he would have rather been anywhere else, but the order was placed and we sat down to wait. The music was pretty loud, but it seemed like a college joint, so I didn't expect much different. We had a chicken burrito and chicken quesadilla. Decent sized, good flavor... I mean really, if you think about it, how much can you vary a burrito?
The key to this place is Grumpy Old Mark's sauces. I had one called Blackberry Warship. It was incredible. Sweet black raspberry... and then SMACK... the heat gets you. They sell sauces, but NOT that one.

MCD Percussion At NAMM 2012
MCD Percussion At NAMM 2012
We had an interesting visit at MCD Percussion's 2012 NAMM booth, where the company described its unusual approach to shell manufacture. Rather than offering all-maple or all-birch drum sets, MCD builds solid-shell kits that feature five different species of wood, to maximize the preferred application of each drum type. The kit on display incorporated canary wood, myrtle, walnut, maple, and catalpa, each on a different drum, with every shell built to a unique thickness according to its intended usage. We apologize in advance for not being able to play the drums for the video, but the NAMM noise police were lurking nearby!
